J.Lo fans rejoice: Jenny plans to launch her second Spanish-language album after she's done with her 2014 Christmas album, hopefully by next year, she told Cosmopolitan for Latinas. Her first Spanish album Como Ama Una Mujer was released in 2007.

"I plan to do a Spanish album right after my Christmas album," she told CFL. "I loved making my Spanish album. It was one of my favorite projects ever."

But she said she's still looking for the right artists and producers to collaborate with.

"I got to do it with my ex Marc Anthony. How do I reinvent that; how do I reinvent him? Who do I work with to capture that same kind of magic? I don't know, but I have a couple of ideas now because I've collaborated with Wisin and Yandel and different artists in Spanish," she said. "But yes, I definitely want to do it. I love singing in Spanish sometimes even better than English. There's just something about it."

Lopez held an album listening brunch in New York City this weekend where she chatted about staying current and remaining an influential artist even now with her 10th album, AKA, which will be available June 17.

"You evolve by knowing what's going on, knowing what everyone's doing, young or old. At the end of the day there's only one me, there's only one Tina Turner, there's only one Beyoncé," she said. "We're not in competition with each other — any of the brave female artists of this time. At the end of the day, if Tina Turner wrote a hit it, would go to the top of the charts. It doesn't matter how young or old she is."

Lopez collaborates with artists like Iggy Azalea, Nas, and of course Pitbull in her new album. Here's a sneak peak of the track "Big Booty," featuring Pitbull.
